Straight from Literary Libations to your lips: the Whisky & Poetry Salon is an intimate evening of Scotland’s finest whiskies and the communal love of all things poetic.

Bring a poem (your own or someone else’s) and read it in a candlelit circle of of fellow aficionados in a 1920’s penthouse loft with a dramatic view of the downtown L.A. cityscape.

In return, you’ll get a flight of fine, single malt scotches and — just in time for Robbie Burns Night the following week — a wee bit of whisky education from our cheeky and erudite Whisky Ambassador Johnnie “the Scot” Mundell.

We’re thrilled to announce that Brendan Constantine, the “guerrilla fighter of poets” will be the featured poet for 2014’s first Whisky & Poetry Salon on Thursday, January 16!
